Carbohydrate Metabolism in Pregnancy and the Newborn Iv

This book assembles present knowledge of the different aspects of human reproduction complicated by diabetes. The contributions are based on the Fourth Quinquennial Aberdeen Colloquium held in 1988 and update the results of the three previous meetings. Many new topics are covered, such as maternal nutrition, obesity, infertility, abortion, retinopathy, and so forth. Care has been taken to include clinical practice guidelines and protocols for the management of diabetic pregnancy and the infant of the diabetic mother. The book is, therefore, designed as much to suit the practicing clinician as the specialist or research worker wishing to keep abreast of contemporary knowledge that has been collected, collated and distilled by internationally recognized experts.Sutherland, Hamish W. is the author of 'Carbohydrate Metabolism in Pregnancy and the Newborn Iv', published 1989 under ISBN 9783540195474 and ISBN 3540195475.
